Fitting a 100W battery in the 13 inch chassis while keeping everything easily serviceable would be impossible

My plan to handle this is to switch my VMs to NixOS, set up NixOS with impermanence using a btrfs or zfs volume that gets backed up and wiped at every startup with another that holds persistent data that also gets backed up, and just reboot once per day.
I’m currently learning how to do impermanence in all the different ways, so this is a long goal, but Nix config + backups should handle everything.
I use a Ryzen 5900x, RTX 3080, 2x 10Gbit sfp+ NIC, 128GB ECC RAM, and only 2x 20TB drives at the moment.
For my gateway, I have an Intel N6005 box, I have a managed 2.5/10Gbit switch, and I have a wifi AP.
I have a ton of Proxmox VMs and containers.
All that hovers between 140W to 180W
To make life easier for yourself, I’d highly recommend running Linux on a separate drive. The Linux distribution installers I’ve used will install the bootloader on whatever drive you choose to install on, but the windows installer will use the storage controller’s port ordering to choose which drive to install on.
Your best bet is to simply disconnect the Windows drive when installing Linux and to disconnect the Linux drive when installing Windows, then just use the BIOS boot selection screen to choose which OS to boot into.
You can add your Windows drive to Grub and you might be able to add your Linux distro to your Windows bootloader, but keeping them entirely separate is probably best.
I preordered the new screen for my 2nd-gen. This is all great news!
I use porkbun for my domains, cloudflare for dns, ddclient connecting to the cloudflare api for dynamic dns, and traefik as a reverse proxy to send subdomains to their respective service.
The only part I have to pay for is the porkbun domain.
$8 for a year is a good deal, but be ready to switch when that expires.
That’s a non-commercial license. It’s not open-source, just source-available.
I just switched from Nobara to NixOS on my gaming PC. I’ve had NixOS on my laptop for almost a year and decided I’m comfortable enough with it to use it full time, and it works great for gaming.
Before NixOS, I was a die-hard Arch user. The only reasons it would break were because I was trying a bunch of stuff from AUR to play around with Wayland + Nvidia when that was brand new, or when I would forget to update for a while.
It breaking was primarily due to me tinkering around and not fully undoing those changes. Now I can do that with no fear on NixOS, and it’s fabulous.
A basic, local text-to-speech app using home assistant’s piper would be great. Feed it a document and have it read the document to you, highlighting along the way.
I currently use nextcloud + todo.txt
I don’t have my todos in my calendar (I think that may be what you’re asking for?), but both are solid systems.
I sync my todo.txt files via nextcloud. I use sleek on my desktop and ntodotxt on my phone.
Also, notifications. I’m a fairly forgetful person, so I set up notifications to let me know if I left windows open or devices on before I go to bed or leave for work.

Like the other commenter said, that is correct. For SSH, I set up a VM as my SSH bastion or jump host. I connect to that, and the SSH from that to any other machine on the network.
you need a reverse proxy.
I can, but I’m not happy with it. If you containerize this setup, each container needs it’s own Calibre instance and it’s very inefficient. I run it on Proxmox and plan to either package it all in a single Docker image or roll it into my Ansible playbook on a different VM.
Sure. I don’t see how that affects what I said, though?
I hope the reason they took so long is that they were waiting on a really good color e-ink screen, but I doubt it. That said, I love my Kobo Sage and my LazyLibrarian + Calibre-web + Kobo Sync workflow, and if you can do the same on these, then they’ll probably be a good buy.
FreshRSS is the tool for that
Do you just use podcasts on your phone? If you have an Android phone, AntennaPod, while not self-hosted, works very well and is FOSS. There are other options to “self-host podcasts” to varying degrees:
PodHoarder: mentioned in another comment, which could be piped into AntennaPod, but I find that a bit redundant for me
AudioBookshelf: a fantastic self-hosted audiobook server, and an okay podcast server, but is focused around streaming from your server to your listening device, and I prefer to download on wifi to listen later (it was pretty clunky for that workflow).
GPodderSync: barely supported at this point and missing too many features to be useful in my opinion, but a neat backend for AntennaPod and other players to sync to some degree.
Bonus: the creators of AntennaPod and other FOSS podcasting software are working on a replacement for GPodderSync here: https://github.com/OpenPodcastAPI
EDIT: for RSS in general, I use FreshRSS, which uses the g-reader API to sync across multiple apps. It’s awesome.
